From our front-page news:
I like Best Buy's Geek Squad service about as much as being forced to use Windows Vista on a 286 with half of a keyboard and a monochrome monitor with an exercise ball as a chair and no beer in the house. But there has to be some good in everything, right? In this case, I do applaud Geek Squad, as they manged to throw a child porn trafficker behind bars for 11 years. Next time you ask yourself, "What kind of idiot uses a service like Geek Squad?", the answer is, "Those who hand over a computer loaded up with child porn".

It's been a rough week for PC users who get their hard drives serviced at Best Buy. First, the RIAA trained its legal guns on a young woman who had Best Buy swap out the hard drive in her computer, a move they believed was designed to wipe evidence of P2P infringement. Now, a man in Arkansas has just been sentenced to 135 months in jail and a $10,000 fine after a Best Buy tech found child porn on the man's hard drive.
